Prince Kofi Amoabeng, the former Chief Executive Officer of the defunct UT Bank has disclosed that although female workers of his financial institution were very beautiful and “tempting”, he never slept with any of them.
According to him, it was not an easy decision, but he had to remain disciplined to avoid making it a culture where senior staff sleep with new entrants or juniors in exchange for promotions or opportunities.
“The reason why I put such rules in place is that applicants might end up sleeping with about 3 or more men before securing the job. Also, they might be promoted based on the fact that they are sleeping with their bosses,” he explained.
He was speaking to Fiifi Pratt in respect of the ‘sex for job’ trend that is deep-rooted in various public and private organisations.
Amoabeng said his defunct bank had a strong policy against romantic office relationships, but as he stated, other workers managed to circumvent the rules.
“We had that HR policy that nobody makes amorous approaches to any staff because we are a family. And when you sleep with a family member, it is incest,” he stated.
